Best Answer

When the application (Client side) knows about the proxy (Configured within the application) this is called explicit proxy.

When it does not know about the proxy (Not configured within the application), this is called transparent proxy. and in this case the traffic has to be redirected somehow to reach the proxy, or the proxy has to be physically installed in the path of the traffic.

The traffic can be redirected to the proxy using a redirection protocol, such as WCCP or Policy based routing.

The Client side application can be a web browser (Example IE or firefox ), Instant messaging client, streaming client, etc....

I meant 2 look up other differences so..... I CAN'T HELP YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
